Situated at 1475 Molson Street, Bergen Gardens is an innovative senior living facility where every structure and design element has been thoughtfully selected to contribute to and promote physical, mental, and spiritual wellness. Recently showcased on CTV News, Bergen Gardens' innovative architectural and design elements make it a one-of-a-kind facility. Upon entry, your eyes will immediately be drawn up to the soaring wood ceiling and open vistas of Bergen Gardens. Built with mass timber, a sustainable product, the wood finish evokes a biophilic response, lowering heart rates, and providing a sense of being connected to nature.
Bergen Gardens has been built with heat recovery ventilators that help make the air cleaner, fresher, and more comfortable. Stale indoor air is constantly refreshed with outdoor air, passing through special corrugated plates. The process leaves tenants with fresh air all year long. All of these innovations leave tenants with a greater sense of well-being.
How These Features Contribute to the Well-Being of Residents
Residents at Bergen Gardens are able to plan their own days however they please. Residents can stroll through the Town Square where they can pick up their mail and drop in at the Corner Store to pick out a pastry at the bakery and chat with a friend over coffee. They can shop for convenience items and gifts for family or friends. They can choose to visit the hair salon and get their haircut, or express their creativity through various artistic mediums at the Inspire Studio. For those who prefer peace and quiet, we have a Reading Room for residents to unwind in and read their books.
Culinary Delights: More Than Just Meals
In the Heartwood Dining Room, residents are treated to a variety of culinary options. They are able to dine in, eat on their own schedule with a takeout meal, or order room service, and they will never run out of high-quality choices. During the summer months, residents can dine on the Heartwood Patio, where our Chef will deliver mouthwatering barbecued specialties, including wood-fired pizza.
Engaging Community and Lifestyle
Bergen Gardens has an array of wellness programs and facilities for the residents to use and enhance their daily lives. Residents can visit the Serenity Spa & Salon to have their nails done, get a haircut, or see a massage therapist. Bergen Gardens has a Pastoral staff person and volunteers who offer spiritual care services in the Summit Community Centre each week. Services are arranged based on the needs of the community. On the second floor is the Wellness Centre, a place to meet friends—to walk together on the treadmill or take an exercise class. With an in-house physiotherapy space, residents can consult with a professional who can develop a plan for them to keep themselves in top shape.
On top of wellness programs and facilities, Bergen Gardens offers residents plenty of ways to engage with the community. There are live music performances in the Town Square for residents to enjoy, weekly movie screenings with new themes every week that the residents choose, and happy hour at Hometown Spirits, Bergen’s licensed tavern, where residents can have food delivered straight to their table. Make an evening of it and enjoy the hockey game on the big screen with friends, play a game of pool, or sing one’s heart out on Karaoke Night. The vast amount of wellness programs and opportunities to engage with the community play a major role in the residents’ overall well-being.
